lyrics

Sure it hurts, but
I figured it would work this way
Up your shirt were
dirty tricks that you had yet to play
like debts unpaid
and lies you’d yet to lay
Hey, hey
Hey, hey

And the band played “Isn’t It Romantic?”
You cocked your head
like the Titanic
just to let me know
you’d sunk so low
I was shocked (at first)
but understand that I can let it go

Sure it hurts, but
don’t wait for me to die of grief
What’s the moral?
Bore a hole
below a coral reef
to find beneath
your quarrel’s got no teeth
Tee–hee–hee
Tee–hee–hee

And the branding iron’s in the fireplace
so strike your mark upon my pretty face
and watch it glow,
then sign below
I was shocked (at first)
but understand that I can let it go

You hung in your chair
’till you almost fell backwards
Your black hair
brushed the floor
as those four words came out so slow
and stole the show
I was shocked (at first)
but understand that I can let it go
